Continguts
To live in a society so thoroughly disbelieving (irreligious) and critical as ours, stimulates reasons to search for orientation, foundation or justification for human action. And it seems that Universities are the social institutions in which such reflections should be made. Within this context, the module of Practical Philosophy intends to study the reasons regarding justification of norms that govern human practice in general, and, more specifically, on the justification of juridical norms and those regarding human rights. These topics, in turn, question moral and political aspects.
